Wheel Alignments, Diagnostics & Suspension Check

At A1 Automotive Suspension & Exhaust, we have specialised in wheel alignments and diagnostics due to vehicles these days getting more and more complicated and the lack of alignment adjustment available due to the way car manufacturers are building the vehicles.

Before any alignment angles are checked, we carry out a 40 point suspension check and Coda shock test to make sure the vehicle is in a condition that will hold an alignment correctly and not wear tyres. Once the vehicle has passed our inspection, we then can carry out the wheel alignment. If your vehicle can't be adjusted, we can then make a recommendation on what is required to repair your vehicle.

We have a large range of aftermarket products available for the correction of alignment angles due to accidents, wear & tear, modifications and incorrect factory setup for Australian roads.




Shock Absorbers

On a vehicle’s suspension, shock absorbers provide the friction needed to control and quickly stop oscillation. In Europe, shock absorbers are known as "dampers," which is actually a more accurate name, since the springs actually absorb road shocks, while shock absorbers dampen the spring action. Some Japanese manufacturers refer to shock absorbers as "dampeners".

Due to the large range of uses and applications of vehicles, dampening control in the aftermarket is a science. Aftermarket manufacturers offer a range of shock absorbers and struts designed to give greater control, altered ride conditions and longer life. A1 Automotive uses these products as part of a complete suspension system solution, whether it be for enhancement or safety. As a Fulcrum Authorised Dealer, A1 Automotive are distributors for leading brand shock absorbers including, TEIN High Performance Suspension, Monroe, KYB, BOGE, Bilstein, RAW, and Koni.

Springs

The springing system is the load carrying device on a vehicle. Although suspension springs all serve the same purpose and have certain characteristics in common, actual spring designs vary widely.

Original Equipment Manufacturers design vehicle springing systems for very specific use or a mass market use. Fulcrum Suspensions is in the automotive aftermarket supply and modification of springing systems for vehicle enhancement or special applications. This involves the supply of a range of coil, leaf, torsion bar, and air spring products that are carefully tailored and matched to provide specific solutions to individual customers.

There are four types of springs currently used in automotive suspension:



A1 Automotive Suspension & Exhaust can supply and fit a wide range of springs to perfectly suit your vehicles application. See below for more detail on each brand:

Four Wheel Drive Suspension Enhancements

At A1 Automotive Suspension & Exhaust, we can tailor make a suspension system to suit your needs and budget. This may be from just a rear coil or Polyair bag kit fitment for towing or a complete front to rear tuned suspension kit for ground clearance, load carrying and off road capabilities.

There are 4 key points to gain optimum performance from your 4WD's suspension:

  • Fine tuning of your suspension to your individual needs: this will ensure the utmost driver control and pleasurable touring to maintain correct vehicle tracking in a straight line.

  • Ride comfort: as this is essential to select the correct shock absorber for the individual needs to maintain traction and the driver and passenger comfort levels.

  • Positive rake: is where the rear of the vehicle is slightly raised in comparison to the front, whether loaded or unloaded to provide safer braking.

  • Cornering stability: will reduce the effects of motion sickness and with sway or roll kept to a minimum, will ensure the vehicles safe handling of it's load.

With all the leading brands of 4WD suspension like Koni, RAW 4x4, King Springs, Bilstein, Polyair, EFS and SuperPro, you can be assured of quality reliable suspension kit.
